Emily Fanning height - How tall is Emily Fanning?

2020 saw the reintroduction of an ITF tour event in New Zealand, at Hamilton, and Fanning made it to the semi-finals in singles before losing to Eri Shimizu. Seeded first in the doubles with partner Erin Routliffe, the New Zealand pair were untroubled throughout the tournament, easily winning the final over Sabastiani León and Ng Man-ying. Two tournaments in Perth were Fanning's last events before international play was suspended due to the Covid-19 coronavirus.

Fanning reached the second round of singles five times on the ITF tour in 2019. The highlight, although it didn't result in a win, was to share in the longest single game in recent history, a 39 minute marathon against Anastasia Gasanova in the second round in Incheon, Korea, at the end of May, with temperatures approaching 40 degrees Celsius. The second game of the deciding set saw Fanning and Gasanova slugging it out for 28 minutes without a result. By now the game had gone for 31 points, with Fanning having the advantage, but a medical timeout was taken. They resumed seven minutes later and, after five more points and four more minutes, Gasanova finally broke Fanning at the eighth attempt. Fanning had had the advantage eight times as well, as they fought through 15 deuces.

Fanning would also be in the record books for sharing in one of the longest tie-breaks of all time, losing 17-15 in the first set decider against Angelina Gabueva in the second round of qualifying in Lexington, Kentucky, at the end of July. In between those two events, Fanning played two singles matches when New Zealand played their 2019 Fed Cup matches in Kuala Lumpur, beating the representative from Bangladesh but losing to Hong Kong's Cody Wong Hong-yi.

Doubles was again Fanning's better discipline in 2019, as she reached two semi-finals in Korea in May before taking her second tour title in Cairns in September with Abbie Myers as her partner, beating top seeds Maddison Inglis and Asia Muhammad in the final.

Fanning had a poor year on the ITF circuit in 2018, qualifying for just two singles main draws. She had to retire injured after just three games of her second round match against Julia Glushko in Winnipeg in July, and lost in the first round in Lubbock in September to María Camila Osorio Serrano. She also won only one main draw doubles match, at Naples in Florida after having had to qualify.

Fanning commenced studying Dietetics and Nutrition at Florida State University in 2014. She transferred to the University of Kentucky in 2017 to complete her degree, having played college tennis for both institutions.

Fanning scored her first ITF main draw singles win at San Luis Potosi, Mexico, in August, where she and Anett Kontaveit won the doubles title, and reached her first quarter-final at Bogotá the following month. She was again voted New Zealand's female junior player of the year, and was rewarded with a nomination to the New Zealand Fed Cup team for 2013.

Fanning made her debut for New Zealand in the Fed Cup in Astana (now Nur-Sultan), Kazakhstan, in February 2013. Playing singles only, she competed on all five days, losing only to Venise Chan from Hong Kong. Her win over in the 3rd-4th play-off would be her last open senior match for more than three years while she continued her university studies.

Fanning received another wildcard into the ASB Classic in 2012, but again could not get past the first round, her conqueror this time being Anne Keothavong. She and Regina Kulikova were given a wild card into the doubles, going out in the first round to the top seeds, and eventual runners-up, Julia Görges and Flavia Pennetta. She played at all four junior Grand Slams, losing in the first round of singles at each but reaching the second round of doubles at all except the Australian Open, and broke into the world's top 50 juniors.

Emily Fanning (born 13 June 1995) is a New Zealand tennis player. Her career-high junior ranking was 38, achieved in July 2012. She has won three doubles titles on the ITF tour.
